YUKKKKK!!!!! I burned out on GS cookies after 13 years worth. I've had cases and cases of cookies in my garage, spent many hours at cookie booths, etc. My daughter is now a lifetime member of Girl Scouts (she's a junior in college) but at least she doesn't sell cookies anymore!!
However, I do like to support scouting. I purchased boxes of some that I don't like (peanut butter flavors) for my sons, but won't be tempted to eat them. I'll let my two teenagers polish them off.
For those of you who don't want the temptation but still want to support scouting, call your local GS council and ask about "family partner" donations. It's a tax-writeoff and 100% of the money goes directly to scouting (as opposed to donating through United Way or other similar service).
